Bassitt continuing his horrific stretch of pitching. Looking like a brutal loss.

16 runs allowed now in his last 7.2 innings over 3 starts. He is starting to look like this year’s Berrios, it appears.

I do not have the numbers in front of me, but apparently Bassitt pitches much better with Kirk as his Catcher. Regardless, you cannot give up 3 runs in the First Inning to a team like Oakland. Bad way to start a 9 game homestand.

Schneider might want to get ejected tonight. The umpire’s zone is outrageous. He stole about 5 strikes that inning from them including a walk to Chapman.

If that pitch was 4 inches lower, he pounds it into the ground to the shortstop lol!

They’ll pull Kikuchi while he’s dominating but they’ll leave a struggling Bassitt in as he blows leads and gives up major hard contact.

Cant believe how badly Manoah set this team back this year all because he was too fat to keep up with the pitch timer. Unreal.

How has Schneider not gotten ejected yet? This guy is stealing runs from them.

He should see Aaron judges hitting coach.
